SWANSEA fan Oli McBurnie has revealed the threatening message he received from a rival Cardiff supporter warning him he could get his “face kicked in”.
The Sheffield United striker was recently pictured in the away end of the Welsh derby making obscene gestures towards the Cardiff fans.

McBurnie, 23, spent four years at the Swans before moving to Chris Wilder’s side last summer.
But he obviously still has an affinity with his old club after being spotted in his bucket hat and Stone Island jacket inside the Cardiff City stadium three weeks ago.
His presence has appeared to rile one supporter up who thought it was necessary to send him a piece of “fan mail”.
McBurnie revealed the letter from the punctuation-hating Cardiff follower on Instagram. It read: “F*** you McBurnie. You are a piece of s*** you want to grow up dont go to Cardiff City you could get your face kicked in you turd.
“Cardiff have fans all over the country so you could be a wanted man your an ignorant peace of s***.
“I hope you have a s*** season and you get injured your a child a pain an asshole your ugly to p****.
“Yours Truely, A Thomas, Wales.”
McBurnie obviously saw the funny side as he shared the letter with a “laughing face” emoji and the comment: “Nice bit of fan mail this morning.”
The Scottish striker was handed an FA warning for his role in taunting Cardiff fans.
While McBurnie’s behaviour was viewed dimly, it was felt that it did not meet the threshold for an official misconduct charge on the basis of bringing the game into disrepute.
Instead, Wembley chiefs wrote to the striker – who has been linked to porn star Elle Brook – to remind him of his responsibilities.
